LOS ANGELES (Aug. 1, 2025) – Gold-certified singer, songwriter, and Bethel Music worship leader Josh Baldwin ushers in a new musical chapter with the release of “Salvation Song,” the first single from his upcoming EP, “FULL GROWN MAN VOL. I,” available everywhere Sept. 5. Out now on all streaming platforms, “Salvation Song” is a soul-stirring anthem that boldly proclaims the hope and freedom found in Christ. Listen to the song here and pre-save the EP here.
Blending Baldwin’s signature Southern roots with heartfelt worship, the track offers a vulnerable look at his personal journey of grace and redemption. Rooted in the message of John 3:16, “Salvation Song” calls listeners back to the simple gospel – reminding them that no matter where they’ve been or what they’ve done, nothing can separate them from the love of Jesus.
“‘Salvation Song’ came from a deep desire to write something that felt like an altar call – simple, honest, and powerful,” says Baldwin. “I wanted it to stir something in the hearts of people who’ve never given their life to the Lord, to make them feel that tug toward Him. My hope is that it reminds us how beautifully simple it really is: all we have to do is call on the name of Jesus – and He will answer.”
A five-track collection that explores themes of identity, manhood and faith shaped by real-life experience, “FULL GROWN MAN VOL. I” was born out of Baldwin’s own reflection on Jesus not only as the Son of God, but also as the Son of Man. That realization sparked a deeper look into how Christ lived and matured, and how His life continues to serve as a guide for Baldwin as a son, husband, and father.
Unlike Baldwin’s previous worship projects, these songs were never intended for the typical Sunday morning setlist. The lyrics focus more on the earthly story of Jesus – His wisdom, His compassion, and the quiet strength with which He lived His brief time on earth. Baldwin describes Jesus as an “old soul” – someone who, even as a child, moved with divine insight and a deep understanding of who He was, why He had come and where He was going. Over time, it became clear that these songs didn’t belong on past records; they needed their own space to breathe and speak.
The forthcoming release of the EP builds on Baldwin’s success as a chart-topping artist, best known for his hit songs “Made For More,” “Evidence,” and the global worship favorite “Stand in Your Love.” His 2024 single “Made For More” became a career-defining moment, hitting No. 1 on the Billboard Christian charts and amassing over 82 million streams to date – with more than 1 million streams each week and counting.
